Chapter 677: Chapter 414 Heavenly Ladder_

After passing the third barrier, the group came to a Heavenly Ladder that reached into the clouds, with countless steps and Golden Light shrouding the area Above the Nine Heavens.

Everyone was shocked and someone exclaimed, “There must be opportunities above the Heavenly Ladder. We’ve already passed three barriers, so gaining such a chance after being trapped for so many years feels worthwhile.”

“The opportunity is definitely unique, but there are dozens of us present. I’m afraid the distribution will not be even; the cooperation we had before now likely means we must part ways!”

At this moment, someone pragmatically said, “As equals in the Saint Seat Realm, who will get the opportunity is not yet known, but I will fight to the death for it without giving any Favors.”

Upon these words, everyone fell silent. Indeed, with only one opportunity available, only one person was destined to acquire it, while all others would serve merely as a backdrop. Originally, they had come to the Ancient Secret Realm because their lifespans were nearing their end. Without the opportunity, they could only await death.

The group looked at each other, many of whom were old acquaintances in the outside world. But now, in order to take another step forward, they could only commence a bloody slaughter.

“Young friend, you have indeed helped me a lot, and my feelings for Saint Sky Sect are deep. But I have cultivated for a lifetime and must take the step towards the Power of the Saint Seat.”

The Holy Daoist glanced at Logan and said word by word, “I hope we do not hold back against each other in the upcoming struggle. Everyone for themselves, and if in the end only you and I remain, I will not hesitate to slay you.”

“I feel the same. You have helped the Wexler Clan and even made it easy for us to pass two barriers. It’s just a pity that the path of cultivation is cruel.”

Wexler Daoist also spoke, and even though Logan was only at the Dominator Realm and he was a Sanctuary Powerhouse, he should not have made a move against Logan. But for the opportunity, he had to be ruthless. Of course, if possible, he still wished to spare Logan’s life in the end.

Cloud Sky Daoist also echoed on the sidelines, “At the start, I will not treat you as an enemy. Among the dozens present, I will compete with them first. With your strength, you likely won’t survive until the end, but if you truly are that one in ten thousand, then we will have no choice but to meet in battle.”

“You don’t have to talk like that because of the disparity in our realms. My strength is comparable to a Quasi-Saint, and you are nearing the end of your lifespans, unable to exhibit the combat power of your youth, so I may not lose.”

Logan said with a carefree smile. There was only one opportunity, and for him, it was something he had to seize. If he wanted to make a breakthrough, he needed this huge chance.

Despite facing dozens of people from the Saint Seat, Logan was not the least bit intimidated. In this battle of the Heavenly Ladder, he might not be the weakest one, and perhaps he could even be the last to laugh.

One must not only look at realms in judging. By realm alone, he was indeed two levels below, but combat power was different. Besides, he had array techniques at his disposal, and he had already killed more than one Sanctuary Powerhouse with his arrays.

While the dozens had not yet stopped conversing, one person had already used his Divine Skill to fly towards the Nine Heavens, saying, “I’ll go ahead. The opportunity is mine for the taking.”

However, the moment he flew up, a Thunder and Lightning Law suddenly descended upon him. He tried to resist with the Power of the Saint Seat but to no avail, and he was struck by thunder, left gasping at death’s door.

“There are Laws in the air preventing flight; we can only climb one step at a time up the Heavenly Ladder, and cannot fly,” the man said, coughing up blood, warning the others.

Having sustained serious injuries before even starting, this opportunity was impossible for him. It was better to give up and sell a Favor, which would surely benefit him.

The dozens of Saint Seats sighed and were also relieved that they had not rushed ahead. Faced with this unknown Heavenly Ladder, they knew they had to proceed carefully.

Of course, many were secretly pleased, as one less competitor meant one less threat. They thought he got what he deserved for trying to outsmart everyone else.

A few Saint Seats looked at Logan with a glint of killing intent in their eyes, “Everyone, we should eliminate Logan first. He’s far too clever. He has led us through the previous challenges, and now at the final step, we can’t let someone from the Dominator Realm get the opportunity, can we?”

“I agree. Although this young man is of lower realm, his methods and strategies are terrifying. Among the dozens here, who can compare?”

A dozen people nodded, all in agreement, “And think about it, should any one of us get the opportunity, we would surely focus on protecting the Ancient World. But if Logan gets it, what if he whimsically decides to destroy heaven and earth in an instant? Youth is unpredictable.”

“Aren’t you all being a little too unfeeling? After all, we are Sanctuary Powerhouses who have lived for thousands of years. Are we now contemplating striking down a youngster? Don’t forget it was Logan who helped us get here by his own power. If we decide to be ungrateful and turn on him, wouldn’t you feel ashamed in your hearts?”

The Holy Daoist stood out and rebuked, “I’m not trying to protect Logan. After all, there’s only one opportunity, and there will be a fight between Logan and me, but it must be on the road to compete for the opportunity, not by foul play before we even start. That’s even worse than what a Demon Sect would do.”

“I also don’t agree. We may engage during the climb, but not now,” Wexler Daoist nodded and said to the dozen people.

The dozen, unconcerned, scoffed, “Can the few of you protect Logan? Just two from the Saint Seat Realm, whereas we are more than a dozen at the Saint Seat Realm.”

“We may be few in number, but if we start fighting and choose to self-destruct our Dantians, we can take several of you down with us. Who would be willing to be that sacrifice?”
